Stop getting lost in the big feelings and use emotional intelligence to bring peace and purpose into your parenting

Emotional intelligence for moms and kids

We spend so much of our day wrestling with the emotions we don't want to feel, and the emotions we don't want our kids to feel. 

We don't want our kids to feel jealous, ungrateful, overwhelmed
We don't want to feel stressed or overwhelmed, as moms
We don't want our kids to be mad with us or their siblings
We don't want to feel bored or unproductive, as moms
We don't want our kids to whine or be sad

And this is exhausting

Our low tolerance for negative/uncomfortable emotions causes us to
> Punish their emotions, dismiss them, manipulate them, criticize them, distract them, minimize them

>> Doing this just keeps us feeling ill-equipped to deal with these emotions in ourselves and our kids

>>> Doing this tells our kids that their emotions are unnecessary, invalid, unacceptable, weak. They don't learn the skills on how to DEAL with them in a healthy and resilient way.

We are getting lost in the emotional tsunami, rather than stepping out of it and seeing the control we DO have

Emotional Intelligence

Emotional Intelligence is taking all that research now tells us can help us and our kids become :
  • more resilient, 
  • self-regulate their emotions, 
  • solve their problems,  
  • have improved relationships,
  • have increased social skills and empathy,
  • be more self-motivated, and
  • proactively deal with the hard parts of life 

Emotional intelligence is the life skill of managing our emotions rather than them managing us
